Why should I make unity with other Christians a priority?

We believe you should prioritize unity in your life because Jesus Christ prioritized it for your life in His final prayer for His disciples before going to the cross (John 17:20–23). If our Lord was stirred to pray in such a way and at such a time, we believe Christian unity should be a top priority in every believer’s life. Furthermore, Scripture is full of passages that reflect God the Father’s heart for His people to be united. Unity is critically important to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, so it should be critically important to all Christians.
